Step5 Assignments
Polish you passage with the skills we have learnt this class.
Dear Lisa,
How is everything going Sorry to hear that you are having trouble adapting to your new high school life and feeling anxious about both your studies and making friends, I'm writing to share some practical suggestions.
To begin with, I recommend that you talk openly with your classmates or teachers about your worries. If you do this, you can not only let out the pressure that’s been building up inside you but also get professional advice tailored to your situation. In addition, why not join one or two school clubs that match your hobbies, like the book club or the art club By doing this, you will meet classmates who share the same interests, which makes it easier to build friendships. Last but not least, doing a 10-minute daily review of what you learned in class is also a good choice. Only in this way will you keep up with the course progress, reduce your anxiety about studies, and even improve your test scores gradually.
Hope my suggestions can help you get through this period smoothly. Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours
Li Hua
Thank You
Goodbye
